Product details
Overview
BUK7604-40A from Nexperia is a standard-level N-channel TrenchMOS FET in D2PAK (SOT404) package, rated for 40 V drain-source voltage, 75 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C, and 8.5 mΩ RDS(on) at Tj = 175 °C. It is AEC-Q101 qualified and designed for automotive 12 V power switching in thermally demanding environments up to 175 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the BUK7604-40A datasheet, BUK7604-40A pinout, BUK7604-40A application, or BUK7604-40A equivalent, this device serves as a high-current, low-RDS(on) discrete switch for motor, lamp, and solenoid control where thermal robustness and automotive qualification are mandatory.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs TrenchMOS technology to achieve low conduction losses and stable threshold voltage across temperature. Its gate threshold voltage ranges from 1 V (Tj = 175 °C) to 4.4 V (Tj = −55 °C), enabling reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drive while maintaining safe margin against spurious activation.
The device features an integrated source-drain diode with 0.85 V forward voltage at 40 A and 96 ns reverse recovery time, supporting freewheeling in inductive loads. Its 1.6 J unclamped avalanche energy rating and 0.5 K/W junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance support rugged operation under transient overloads and high-power dissipation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V maximum - supports 12 V automotive systems with ≥3× safety margin against load dump transients. |
| ID (continuous) | 75 A at Tmb = 25 °C - limited by package thermal capability, not die rating. |
| RDS(on) | 3.9–4.5 mΩ at Tj = 25 °C; 8.5 mΩ at Tj = 175 °C - enables <1 W conduction loss at 25 A, critical for thermal management. |
| QG(tot) | 117 nC - determines gate driver strength requirement for fast switching in PWM applications. |
| EAS | 1.6 J unclamped avalanche energy - sustains single-pulse inductive energy without failure during fault conditions. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 0.5 K/W - allows 300 W total power dissipation when mounted on a properly sized heatsink. |
| VGS(th) | 2–4 V typical at 25 °C; 1 V min at 175 °C - ensures gate drive compatibility with 5 V/3.3 V logic while avoiding false turn-on at high temperature. |
Pinout & Package
Package: D2PAK (SOT404), plastic surface-mounted package with isolated mounting base connected to drain. Dimensions per IEC JEDEC outline: 15.8 × 10.3 × 4.5 mm (L × W × H), with 3 leads (lead 1 cropped).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal; requires ≤20 V gate-source voltage; 117 nC total gate charge defines driver sizing. |
| 2 (D) | Drain | Main power output; electrically tied to mounting base for direct heatsinking; handles 75 A continuous current. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return path; internal source inductance 7.5 nH affects switching ringing and layout sensitivity. |
| Mounting Base (mb) | Drain connection | Thermally and electrically connected to drain; must be soldered to PCB copper pour or heatsink for thermal performance. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | 40 V, 220 A peak, 2.2 mΩ RDS(on) @ 25 °C; DFN5x6 package; no mounting base. | Higher current density but lower thermal mass; requires advanced PCB thermal design. | Select when board space is constrained and heatsinking is via PCB copper only. |
| IRF1404ZPBF | 40 V, 195 A peak, 3.8 mΩ RDS(on) @ 25 °C; TO-220AB package; non-automotive grade. | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and 175 °C rating; higher RDS(on) at elevated temperature. | Select for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications where qualification is not required. |

FAQ
Is BUK7604-40A suitable for high-side switching configurations?
Yes - its standard-level gate drive (VGS(th) ≤4 V) and 40 V VDS rating support high-side use with appropriate level-shifting gate drivers. The mounting base is internally connected to drain, so thermal interface design must accommodate high-side voltage isolation requirements.
What is the maximum recommended PCB copper area for thermal performance?
Nexperia specifies a minimum footprint for Rth(j-a) = 50 K/W; for optimal thermal performance, a ≥10 cm² 2-oz copper pour connected to the mounting base is recommended. Thermal vias (≥12× 0.3 mm diameter) beneath the base improve heat transfer to inner layers.
Does BUK7604-40A require external gate resistor for EMI suppression?
Yes - due to its 117 nC gate charge and fast switching (tf = 76 ns), a series gate resistor of 5–15 Ω is recommended to dampen ringing and reduce radiated emissions, especially in motor drive applications with long trace lengths.
Can BUK7604-40A replace older BUK7504-40A in existing designs?
Yes - BUK7604-40A is a direct replacement with identical pinout, package, and electrical specifications. It supersedes BUK7504-40A per Nexperia's revision history and maintains full functional and thermal compatibility in legacy automotive designs.
